Sources close to G4 are saying that not only has an unannounced stealth-action James Bond title been put on hold over at Activision, but that it was being developer by Raven and the team working on it has been moved over to Call of Duty: Black Ops, to create map packs for it.

The newest video for Raven Software’s FPS Singularity may be called Cause and Effect, but it really just shows us how cool it would be to bust some shit up and then put it back together again with the handy-dandy Time Manipulation Device attached to your wrist Apparently, you can also use it to suck […]

Activision has just sent word that a demo for Wolfenstein on PC has hit the net. Surely you can find this through your favorite file site, but we know for sure that it’s over on FileFront. If you have been itching to try it out, now’s your chance. Earlier it was announced that it had […]

Raven’s Wolfenstein’s moved 106,000 units in the US, a combined figure for all formats, Gamespot reports. Not the best. It’s worth noting that Raven laid off 30-35 staffers the day after the game shipped. Still. It’s got the best German accents in any game ever. And we should be thankful for that.

Raven Software has made 30-35 employees redundant at its Wisconsin studios. Activision has confirmed the lay-off to Kotaku, but declined comment on the exact number of people affected. “With the recent completion of both X-Men Origins Wolverine, based on the summer blockbuster movie, and Wolfenstein, the next chapter of the famed franchise, Raven Software is […]

Shack’s posted the Wolfenstein launch trailer posted at Quakecon last night. As Nathan kept saying in our liveblog, it’s green. It’s also pretty cool, so be sure to look. It’s out later this month for PC, 360 and PS3.

Raven Software designer Manveer Heir has tweeted that if Wolfenstein outsells Madden 10 in August, he will personally reimburse you for your copy of Wolfenstein. We saw this yesterday and honestly thought it was a joke. Apparently, not. Here’s the tweet: Here’s the deal folks: if Wolfenstein outsells Madden 10 in August I will personally […]

Acti’s released a background dev trailer for Wolfenstein – as seen after the break – showing where the franchise came from, what’s going on with Raven’s imminent update and delivering the revelation that “Nazis” and “monsters” are “cool”. Have a nose. The shooter’s out for PC, PS3 and 360 next month. Thanks, Joystiq.

Activision’s put out the second edition of its Wolfenstein web comic, the next part in the series we didn’t report on in the first place. We’ve failed you, Wolfenstein fan. Get both videos after the break. We’ll never be so slack again. That’s a lie, actually. The game’s out in August. Thanks, Joystiq.

Raven and Acti Blizz have delayed Singularity until the beginning of next year to keep it our of Modern Warfare 2’s all-smashing super-snowplough. Sensible. “The level of excitement for Infinity Ward’s Modern Warfare 2 coming out of E3 well exceeded our expectations and therefore we have decided to move Raven’s upcoming sci-fi first person action […]

Raven’s Wolfenstein update just got system requirements, courtesy of an id poster on the game’s boards. And here they are. We’re still waiting for a solid date, but you should be playing this next month at the latest. SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS: Microsoft(R) Windows(R) XP or Windows Vista(R) (Windows 95/98/ME/2000 are unsupported) Microsoft DirectX(R) 9.0c (included & […]

This is rubbish. id’s confirmed to Destructoid that Hitler won’t be appearing in Raven’s imminent Wolfenstein thanks to timeline issues. “No,” said community manager Peter Sokol, “in this game there will be no Hitler. We love ‘Mecha Hitler.’ Obviously, he’s one of the classic bad guys in videogames. It’s so famous in Wolf 3D when […]

Activision’s producer for Singularity, Kekoa Lee-Creel, has said that it’s “absolutely critical” for the game to have a demo released before it hits retail. “The shooter market is saturated, it’s tough to break in right now when there’s a lot of great, well-established franchises,” he told Develop. “We’re definitely on track to release a demo. […]

Acti’s put out the latest Wolfenstein trailer, this time focusing on the Assassin. After the break. He’s great, and all, but surely if you’re an assassin you might want to not glow? This is supposed to be out this month, but there’s no fixed date. Still “summer”.

Singularity’s E3 trailer’s after the break, and it includes a good chuck of gameplay, time-warping, puzzles and some kind of “follow the bullet” thing. For killing people, like. The game’s set on an ex-Soviet island, and involves lots of people dying. It’s out later this year.

Singularity creative director Jon Zuk has admitted ambitions for more games to follow the fledgling FPS, but said Raven is “presumptuous” enough to assume the new IP will spawn sequel. “Of course we’d love for there to be more Singularity games,” Zuk told VG247, “but right now we’re concentrating on making this first game as […]

Wolvering dev lead Dan Vondrak has told UGO that he’s keen on making a Deadpool game. This is probably pretty cool. “That’s very easy, that’d be Deadpool,” he said when asked which comic character he’d like to tackle next. “We’re huge fans of Deadpool. When we made X-Men 2, we made sure to put Deadpool […]
